Convert WEBP to PNG
Drop your WebP files below. They are converted on your own device and never sent anywhere.
Convert to PNG when something has rejected a .webp file: an older design application, an upload form, a document editor, or any system that predates 2020. It is converted by your own browser here, so the file is never uploaded.

Nothing is uploaded. Your files are read by this page and processed by your own processor. Open the Network tab and watch — you will not see them leave.
WebP and PNG, and why you would move between them
WebP is what a lot of the web serves now, which means it is also what your browser hands you when you save an image from a page. That is fine until you try to use the file: older versions of Photoshop refuse it, plenty of upload forms reject it, Office applications will not insert it, and a surprising number of internal business systems have never heard of it.
Converting to PNG solves that permanently. PNG is lossless, so the conversion adds no new compression damage on top of whatever the WebP already had, and it keeps transparency — which matters because so many of the WebP files people save are logos and product cutouts rather than photographs.
Things that catch people out
- The conversion is lossless from this point on, but it cannot undo what came before. A WebP saved lossily has already discarded detail, and the PNG is a perfect copy of that damaged image — larger, and no sharper.
- Expect the PNG to be several times bigger. A photographic WebP at 200KB routinely becomes a 2MB PNG, because PNG never throws anything away. If size matters more than compatibility, JPEG is the better target.
- Animated WebP files exist, and only the first frame survives. BriskFile works on single images, so an animated WebP produces a single still PNG.
- Transparency is preserved exactly, including partial transparency at soft edges. This is the main reason to choose PNG over JPEG here.

Questions
Why will my software not open WebP files?
WebP only became universally supported in browsers around 2020, and desktop software lagged well behind that. Photoshop needed a plugin until 2022, and a great deal of business software has never added it. The format is fine; the software around it is simply older than the format.
Does converting WebP to PNG improve the quality?
No. PNG is lossless, so it preserves exactly what is in the WebP — including any compression artefacts already there. You get a larger file containing the same visible image. Nothing is recovered.
Will the transparent background survive?
Yes. Both formats support an alpha channel, including partial transparency, so soft edges and drop shadows come through intact.
